If everything is going as planned, I’m in Grand Cayman lounging on the beach with a cocktail in hand right now. And I’m sure I’m incredibly happy and relaxed and don’t have a care in the world. But honestly, I’m also a little sad that I’m missing Peter from PeterDeWolf.com’s post today. Please enjoy it for me!
And then I realized that I didn’t have a single idea for a blog post. Which, frankly, happens every time I agree to guest post for someone.
But this morning, as I stood in the shower, staring at the wall tiles until the random patterns morphed into monsters — ogres, I think — I had an idea.
1) When a woman sets her Facebook relationship status as “It’s complicated,” it really means “I want us to be exclusive but HE WANTS TO BONE EVERYTHING THAT MOVES!!!!!!” And when she sets her status as “In a relationship” it means, “Yay! We finally committed! And HE WANTS TO BONE EVERYTHING THAT MOVES!!!!!!” And when she removes all signs of her relationship status, it means, “How many cats is too many cats?”
2) 3 cats is too many cats.
3) Getting the answers you want from a guy involves asking the right questions. For example, instead of “Does my ass look big in this dress?”, you could ask, “How AWESOME does my ass look in this dress?” Then you’ll get answers like “Very!” or “Mrrrowwwr” or “It looks like the ass of a young Elvis Stojko.”
4) Rolling Stones > Beatles
5) Kissing Soulja Boy thru the phone only leads to bad places.
6) Be ballsy. In junior high, I re-wrote a play for our drama club. It was too long and I figured that my twelve year old self could do a better job of wrapping up the story. I stand by that theory.
I think it was Shakespeare.
7) Don’t forget: ABC. Always. Be. Uhm… Creating blog posts. Seriously. Keep writing. Get it out there. There is something cathartic about the process. Be open. Be real. Of course, I’m the dude that wrote a “poem” about a girl’s bum on his blog. So, clearly, this is a “do as I say and not as I do,” kind of situation.
And there you have it. My advice to you. Now go forth and do great things.
And stay out of my bushes.

Excellent guest blog!
If I were going somewhere I’d camp outside your place until you gave in, er…ask you to guest blog for me. But I’m staying here so I’ll have to tuck that idea away for later.
mmmkay…here's some counter-advice…if you're dating someone who tells you your ass looks like a young elvis stojko's, and he means it as a compliment, you are dating a gay man.
and when you start thinking you write better than shakespeare, you need an ego adjustment.
Oh. Man.
I remember when this jackass (jackassette?) commented.
I was so bummed because I was reallllllllllllllllllly hoping to impress you.
I came up with about fifteen perfect replies, but didn’t think it would charm you to see me teeing off on this clown.

peter recently posted..Ashley and Peter: A Love Story
fabulous and witty and happy post! good job!
i'll never forget the first and second advice LOL. fantastic post, petedewolf.
I love this. But you already know that. And you know, I even agree with you on the Stones vs. Beatles comment.
Fantastic guest post Peter!
"And when she removes all signs of her relationship status, it means, "How many cats is too many cats?" "
Oh. You nailed it.
Fabulous advice and guest post.
A wonderfully Peter post.
Three cats are too many? Oh … shit!
Great advice and one of the best guest posts I've read.
I need analysis of what the "open relationship" tag on facebook means also, please.
"And when she removes all signs of her relationship status, it means, "How many cats is too many cats?"
Or it means she's shady.
Good advice, except when a woman sets her Facebook relationship status as "It's complicated," it actually means "I am in a relationship but could easily be persuaded to climb in bed with any man who has more to offer."
I second Maxie's request.
And I actually agree more with M.J. about the whole "It's complicated" thing.
Rather than "How many cats is too many cats?" sometimes removing all evidence of your relationship status means, "Um, yeah, I guess we're dating, but I don't really want anyone to know about it."
I have 1 cat, just saying. Thanks for making me laugh out loud.
I literally LOLd at #1 – relationship statuses via Facebook are so loaded it's not even funny! Or wait, it is…
This was great! LOVE #1 because it is SO true… hahaha!!
Oh dear. I have three cats. Is that what I'm doing wrong?
great advice.
Am I the only one who laughed at the fact that Ashley was in "your bush(es"?
Probably.
This is why I'm never at the cool table =P
Fantastic advice, really. Where were you when I was getting out into the real world and needed to know this sort of thing?
